ALFALFA CUBES CAN BE EFFECTIVELY USED AS THE SOLE SOURCE OF ROUGHAGE FOR ALL CLASSES OF HORSES. BECAUSE OF THEIR HIGH NUTRIENT VALUES FOR ENERGY, PROTEIN, CALCIUM AND VITAMINS THEY ARE VERY EFFECTIVE FOR THE BROODMARE AND YOUNG GROWING HORSES. WITH ALL THE HORSES ESPECIALLY THE MATURE HORSE, CONTROL OF FEED INTAKE IS A MUST TO PREVENT OVER FEEDING.
